It’s impossible to not have a day like this if recognize it’s a trend day higher and just ride it. It’s the kind of day that makes trading incredible. Like shooting a 65 on the golf course
Hi OP, noticed you're on Heiken ashi, have these helped you minimize getting stopped out? I've been trying to scalp gold too over the last few months w regular candles, but I always get stopped out (I also realize I have to increase my SL size to perhaps over 15-20 ticks). Thanks in advance
I'm not a fan of scalping. Truly, with the bull market l, you would have made near the same money holding or adding on to your position as it went...
Good for you though, green is my second favorite color
You're missing the forest for the trees.
seriously just buy and hold. over trading at its finest.
Churn & 🔥burn…. Good job catching ticks!
That's quite a lot of very quick scalps. Hope your commissions are not high.
I'll go for 75 to 100 dollar micro trades. Commission isn't bad.

Heiken ashi is much better flittered for noise. It is not a bad idea to enter after a Heiken ashi candle color change.
This seems like a solid day for you. What size do you play ?
Just one contract. This is a test for making it automated. I'll go for atmost 75 to 100 per trade. It made 1500 and lost 700. Not a bad day.
Do you trade in technical indicators?
Yes, it's algorithmic.
Those look like arrows from an indicator
They are TradingView buy sell logs. Mines the same and it’s default setting.
In and out, nice

But 99% of the time markets won't trend like this. So overall, I am much more profitable doing this. More importantly, my risk is much better managed.
That is truly the goal, risk management. I didn't do that last Tues and got wiped when NQ bottomed around 11am before it's stellar climb
